The SoCon Conference tournament begins on Friday March 8th. All games are at the Harrah’s Cherokee center in Asheville, NC. The championship will be at 7 PM on Monday, March 11th.
Here are some teams to watch in this tournament:
#1 Samford : Samford loves to play very quickly, and they are very good at it. They have a fast paced offense that loves to attack the rim and shoot a lot of threes. They rode their offense to a 26-5 overall record, going 15-3 in conference while going 18-0 at home on the season. They are a very fun team and my pick to win this tournament.
#2 UNC Greensboro : UNC Greensboro is a well balanced and experienced team that can shoot the 3 ball very well. They upset Arkansas early in the season and have proven themselves as a competitor in the SoCon.
#4 Western Carolina : Western Carolina may be the second strongest team in this conference but are stuck at the 4 seed due to a mid-season slump. They have wins over McNeese State, Notre Dame and Vanderbilt. They are balanced on both sides of the ball and I think they will give Samford it’s biggest challenge.
